Planning Commission Meetin~ At the Planning Commission meeting held on February 24, 1998, no one spoke at the public hearing. The Planning Commission requested the north end of the plat, including the pine trees, be made an outlot. This was done in order to preserve the pine trees. The plat under consideration at this time does not include that area as an outlot. Preservation of the trees could be accomplished by way of a condition included as part of the plat approval. Since the city will have ownership of the lot, we can ensure, through the development review process, that development of the parcel will preserve as many trees as possible. Outlot A, as shown on this plat, consists of a small triangular piece at the northern tip of the plat. It will go to the adjacent property owner who has claimed an interest through torrens proceedings to clear title. Should the Council decide to reconfigure the plat so the pine trees are included in an outlot, the plat could be amended to reflect that. Recommendation The Planning Commission and staff recommend the City Council approve this preliminary plat and Resolution No. 98- granting final plat approval with the following conditions: FIELD VERIFY THE LOCATION OF THE ELECTRIC LINE ACROSS THE SOUTHERN PORTION OF THE PLAT AND THE LOCATION OF THE GUIDE FOR THE UTILITY POLE LOCATED ON HOLT AVENUE NEAR THE INTERSECTION WITH 193R° AND ADJUST THE UTILITY EASEMENTS TO INCLUDE THEM IF NEEDED. 2. ACCESS TO THE LOT WILL BE FROM HOLT AVENUE ONLY. 3. THE EXISTING TREES SHALL BE PRESERVED AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE. 4. PARK DEDICATION FEE IN THE AMOUNT OF $2000.00 PER ACRE BE PAID PRIOR TO RECORDING THE FINAL PLAT. 5. SURFACE WATER MANAGEMENT FEE IN THE AMOUNT OF 5826.10 PER ACRE BE PAID PRIOR TO RECORDING THE FINAL PLAT. 6. PAYMENT OF WATER AVAILABILITY CHARGE BE PAID PRIOR TO RELEASING THE FINAL PLAT FOR RECORDING. A seventh condition, to include the pines trees as part of an outlot, could be added and read as follows: 7. THE PLAT BE RECONFIGURED TO INCLUDE AN OUTLOT B WHICH WOULD EXTEND SOUTH OF OULTOT A TO THE EXISTING PINE TREES.
